Review: Cheapo – Play, Pie & A Pint – Traverse Part of A Play, A Pie and A Pint at the Traverse, Cheapo turns a quiet chess game into a tense moral battle between two teens and the truths they’d rather hide.

A chess game, a confession, a reckoning.

Our latest review finds Cheapo — written by Katy Nixon and directed by Brian Logan — taut, unsettling and humane. “Biting, sometimes brutal dialogue.” ★★★★½

A Play, A Pie and A Pint Review – Wasps ★★★ Wasps, by Cameron Forbes, follows 16-year-old Rianne (played by Yolanda Mitchell) as she negotiates high school romance, friends, and a desperately sick mother. It’s a coming-of-age tale woven around the natural history of the wasp, much maligned wielder of the ‘arse-knife’ and our teenage heroine’s unlikely totem creature. Unlikely because, at least to begin with, she hates the wee stingers.

Stings, school, and pot noodles: Cameron Forbes' Wasps at the Traverse follows a teen grappling with wasp fears, friendship drama, and family illness.

A Play, A Pie and A Pint – Kev Campbell Was He & Eilidh, Eilidh, Eildh Kev Campbell Was He ★★★★★ Stepping in, at short notice, to replace Hell from the indisposed Jonny & The Baptists, creator & performer Alexander Tait resurrected his debut play Kev Campbell Was He and filled the gap in style. Endearingly humorous, the play opens on 18-year-old Glaswegian Kev in a nightclub toilet cubicle - remarkable for its utter lack of graffiti.

Kev Campbell Was He and Eilidh, Eilidh, Eilidh offer two very different, but highly effective comedies looking at pressing, social dilemmas.
